Assignment:

For this discussion board, consider the historical moral blunders of the Tuskegee Study and Josef Mengele's Nazi medical research and how political institutions and leaders, ethicists, and people-at-large responded to them - you read the Nuremberg Code and Declaration of Helsinki in response to Nazi medical research. Do you agree that it seems as though the world needs major moral disasters to occur before people finally do the right thing? If so, what other examples of moral disasters can you think of? What changed in response to your moral disaster example? If you disagree, why so? How do you envision moral progress instead? Regardless of whether or not you agree or disagree, what can be done to prevent these kinds of moral blunders in the future?
